Blue Origin New Glenn Rocket Booster Successfully Lands on Drone Ship
Description
A screenshot from Blue Origin's live stream showing the first stage booster of the New Glenn rocket (Mission NG-2) having just touched down on a drone ship at sea. The massive rocket stage sits upright on the landing platform surrounded by ocean water, with landing legs deployed and stabilization clamps visible. The telemetry overlay at the bottom shows T+00:12:59, Stage 1 velocity at 000,000 MPH and altitude at 000,000 FT (confirming touchdown), while Stage 2 continues at 16,668 MPH and 000,100 MI altitude. The Blue Origin feather logo and 'MISSION NG-2' text appear in the upper right corner. Text at bottom left reads 'BOOSTER TOUCHDOWN' and 'SaCO-1' identifies the ship

Blue Origin finally deployed to production -- only took them a decade of 'it works on my launchpad' testing
I see Blue Origin is using the 'deploy to a floating, unstable environment and hope for the best' strategy. Reminds me of our last Kubernetes migration
